No!
Rush, Gremio. Though it pass your patience
and mine to endure her loud alarums,
why, man, there be good fellows in the world,
if one could but light on them,
would take her with all her faults,
for the sake of her father's fortune.
I would not do it for a mine of gold.
Help Katharina to a hus...band
and we help Bianca to become a wife.
Thine or mine?
He that runs fastest gets the ring.
How say you, Signor Gremio?
- I am agreed. There must be such a man.
- Yes.
I would give the best horse in Padua
to whoever would thoroughly woo her,
wed her, bed her, and rid the house of her.
There must be such a man.
There must be such a man.
- There must be such a man.
- Out of my path!
- O, Grumio!
- Huh?
Here, sirrah Grumio, knock, I say.
Knock, sir? Whom should I knock?
Aha!
Is there any man has rebused your worship?
Villain, I say, knock me here soundly.
Knock you where, sir?
Knock me at my friend Hortensio's gate,
And rap me well, or I'll knock your knave's pate.
Ah! My master is grown quarrelsome.
And then I know after who comes by the worst.
Sirrah, will you not knock? Or I'll ring it.
- Masters! Help, masters! My master is mad.
- Ring when I tell you.
Masters!
Hortensio. Ah!
Well met, my dearest friend, Hortensio.
Petruchio!
What's the matter?
Rise, Grumio, rise.
If this be not a lawful cause
for me to leave his service, look you, sir.
He bid me knock...
Senseless villain. Signor Hortensio,
I bade this rascal knock upon my gate,
- And could not for my heart get him to do it.
- Knock at the gate? O heavens!
Spake you not the words plain,
''Knock me here...''?
Sirrah, be gone, or talk not, I advise you.
Signor Petruchio, what happy gale
Blows you to Padua here from old Verona?
You and your trusty, pleasant servant Grumio.
Signor Hortensio, thus it stands with me:
Antonio, my father, is deceas'd,
And I have... thrust myself into this maze,
Haply as best I may to... thrive and wive.
To...?
Thrive and wive.
Wive... saidst thou?
Her father is Baptista Minola,
An affable and courteous gentleman.
Her name is... Katharina Minola.
There.
Petruchio, shall I then come roundly to thee,
And wish thee to a shrewd ill-favour'd wife?
Thou'dst thank me but a little for my counsel,
And yet I promise thee she shall be rich,
And very rich.
But then, th'art too much my friend,
And I'll not wish thee to her.
O' my word, and she knew him as well as I do,
she'd think scolding would do him little good.
Signor Hortensio, 'twixt such friends as we
Few words suffice;
And therefore, if you know
One rich enough to be Petruchio's wife -
